HERo1NE,s LOVE.

Sermon BY Rev. Mr. Chapman At the
First M. e. Church Yesterday Morn.
ing.
Rev. Mr.. Chapman, pastor of the First M.
E. church, preached yesterday morning to a
good-sized congregation on the subject GA
Heroine's Love-" He took for his text part
of the eighth verse of the fourteenth chapter
of st. Mark: She hath done what she could.
ga very suggestive picture is drawn. from
this. 1t was two Sundays before the cruel
fixion. The place was Bethany, near Jeru-
salem. Christ sat ia the house of Simon the
leper. His disciples were there. Mary is
waiting on the table, and in her great anxi-
ETY. to make things pass off well she is some
what anxious and troubled. Her life began
when she saw Jesus. He has done every
thing for her. What can she do for him? She
remembers nothing but her love for Je-
sus, when she thinks what he has done for
her. He is her light her salvation.
''The name of Mary is sweet in the ears of
! all mankind. After all, love is wisdom.
The heart is the guide OF the head. This
/ woman saw deeper into Jesus mission than
anyone else. She saw, what none of the dis
| ciples could see, defeat, humiliation and
| death ahead. She saw how the disciples
| were to be scattered. She saw deepest into
| the mystery and meaning of God.
'sLove, love that is true, wolketh out a
| slow redemption. Mary was foolish in what
| she did in the eyes of the world, improvi-
| dent in the eyes of her friends. Love is SO
| like God that it is fed from exhaustive foun-
tains and goes on forever. There is one
| thing we cannot push to excess, and that is
love for God, love for our families. The love
1 that is idolatrous intrudes between us and
God.
Glove, however lavished is never lost. We
| can understand in a sense how it is more
blessed than to receive. Where everything
is given, where one gives his live for anoth-
er and nothing to gain by it, these are the
mysteries that trouble and perplex us. Where
| is the precious ointment concealed! All these
things are hidden from us.
"Let fidelity to what we have enter into
the joy of God. Mary was woman. She
was restricted by Oriental ways. Size could
not work miracles, but she brought her best
l and laid it at the masters feet. The rich
1 brought their purses, but to the eyes OF Jesus
/ she gave more than all.
The speaker enforced the obvious lesson of
the hour, christian Fidelity" in very in
teresting and forcible concluding remarks,
making particularly impressive also the
power of the goodness that operates through
love-love of God and of humanity-a bene-
ficent power that is not measured by words
| nor by the rolling wears.

VIII It Rneourage I1nmoraIlty2

The whole country is losing in both moral
and physical strength. Moral because the
rapid accumulation of wealth leaves its peo-
pie the means of gratifying this nature,
which calls for fast, luxurious living. Physi-l
cal degeneracy, eradication of the moral
senses, broken constitutions and paralytic
heart disease are the result. People of this
kind are easily killed with ordinary illness.
Everybody is easily out of breath, easily
tired; the nerves lose their vigor and power
to control the functions of the body and may
drop dead from insuffciency Of the nerves of
the heart. The Moxie people say it will stop
it all and prevent i'll effect from fast life and
hard wear that brings heart troubles. Then
will it not encourage. such habits2 The Moxie
Co. say people would do the same if Moxie
had not been discovered. While Christian
ty heals the moral Moxie eradicates the
physical effects. One encourages more than
the other. The atonement holds out relief
to man an hour before he dies.

Buttercup's Circus.

Fred and BERTHE, two little black
eyed boys, were visiting their Aunt
Susan in a beautiful country village.
The large, old-fashioned house under
a giant elm tree was full of wonders to
them, but their greatest delights were
in driving the old gray horse, or feed
ing and petting an Alderney calf which
their Uncle Harry was raising. This
baby cow" as little BERTHE called her,
was kept away from its mother, Old
Clover, most of the day and tied to a
cherry tree in the side yard. The boys
named her Buttercup. They were
allowed to feed her with meal and
water, and she soon grew so tame that
they could pat and caress her as much
as they pleased. One day Fred found
an old saddle in the stable and he
proposed to BERTHE to help him put it
on the calf and have ride the length
of her rope. They succeeded in fasten-
ing it upon Buttercup's smooth back,
and Freddie exclaimed, with delight,
Now we will have first-class circus"
They brought chair from the house
and placed it by the side of Miss Cow,
she looking wonderingly at them with
great round eyes. The boys both stood
together in the chair and Fred said +,
" Now | will count, and when / say
four we must spring upon the saddle.
One-two-three-four," and on they
went But before they could have said
g five Miss Buttercup's heels were in
the air and her head went down so
quickly that Master Fred felt sudden
chill and found himself in tub of
rain-water that stood under the caves
of the woodshed, while BERTHE went
head-foremost into pan of meal and
water. A slight noise followed their
fall. Their uncle and aunt appeared.
The saddle was sent back to the stable
and the boys did not engage Buttercup
for any more circus performances that
summer.-,Selected.

Origin OF Peculiar Words.

The attempt to hunt down to their
beginning strange words, phrases OF
any literary curiosity, is very uncer-
tain in results, though it is sure to be
interesting. al the Year Round had
an article on this subject full of curl
GUS research. 1t has number of in
stances for which DeQuincy is author
ity. He says that "news" is COM
bination of the initial letters of north,
east, west, south. He also accounts for
the word "queer" by stating that, to
win bet for a thousand pounds, that
an entirely new word would the next
day be in everybody's mouth. Quinn,
the actor, had the word "queer -
chalked one night all over London.
This is regarded as a mistake by the
editor of the Licing Age, in which the
article appears. In Morton's comedy,
1.-The Plow," occurs this conversation
" BE quiet, will We? Always ding
dinging Dame Grundy into my ears.
What will Mrs. Grundy say?" And
Mrs. Grundy has held the floor ever
since. NJ. Littre is authority for the
derivation of "hurrah" from the
Slavonic huraf, "to paradise" which
signified that all soldiers who fell fight
ing valiantly went straight to heaven.
This is the warrior meaning of the
triumphant battle shout, whether it be
the northern "three cheers and a
tiger or the fierce southern "rebel
yell. "-Iraueller.

Billy's Protest.

An English paper cites an incident
wherein a goat not only resisted his
human tempter, but emphatically vindi-
Gated his own principles. Billy "
belonged to regiment, and never was
a goat more attentive to public duty
than was he. In the mess-room he
was a welcome guest, and received
many a dainty morsel there from the
friendly hands of the men. One night,
however, it happened that Colonel
that the goat should be offered a glass
of liquor. Accordingly he coaxingly
held out his cup, and Billy, after sus-
picious preliminary sniff, quaffed off
the contents. Another and yet another
of the men offered Billy a drink, an
invitation he could not think of de-
clining. Finally the large earthen
vessel at the head OF the table which
held the beer was placed upon the floor,
and Billy was directed to help himself,
which he proceeded to do with such
hearty goodwill that he became help
lessly, Enthusiastically intoxicated. The
next morning he was absent from roll
call, and no one could tempt him to
leave the stable during the entire day.
When the second evenings mess began
without him the colonel was requested
to bring the deserter before court
martial of those who had witnessed his
tipping. 1t was with difficulty that
Billy was dragged into the room, which
he evidently remembered as the scene
of his disgrace. His appearance was
greeted with a cheer, but sadly changed
were his looks. His once glossy coat
had an unkempt appearance, while the
once proud and erect head was lowered
in shame. "Come, Billy; take drink! !"
said the sergeant at the head of the
table. The words seemed to rouse the
animal. He lifted his head, his eyes
lit up, his fore-hoof beat the floor.
With a snort, rush and bound,
Billy butted full against the large
earthen vessel containing the mems
evening allowance of ale, breaking it
into a thousand pieces. Then, with
his head once more erect, he stalked
proudly out of the room. " And really"
said the corporal who told the incident,
&" Billy's was the best blue-ribbon lee
ture | ever listened - Youths COM
